Re: “In one sense, Republicans and Democrats are nearly the same......[They create] an impenetrable bureaucracy that’s expensive to run and difficult to control.”
Unfortunately, all government bureaucracies, and most of the people they employ, are instinctively Leftist.
That is the eternal trump card of the Democrat Party.
Even when the Republicans are in power, the bureaucracy relentlessly pulls government to the Left.
Very true. Though I didn’t really articulate your point in my article, it’s a conclusion I’m hoping sensible people will get.
